Days After PGA Championship Fairytale, Michael Block Torn Between Crucial Money vs Legacy Decision

The PGA Championship held a different kind of craze among golf fans this year for too many reasons. With LIV Golf’s presence in the major tournament, to Brooks Koepka’s unexpected yet memorable victory, it was nothing less than a roller coaster for the fans. However, there was something else that took away the major attention of the golf world. And it was the overnight stardom of PGA pro Michael Block, with his epic T15 finish.

Leaving numerous talented players behind on the leaderboard, Block made a unique identity for himself in the mega-event. However, fame brings along a lot of other virtues to take care of. And as per sources, the golfer is currently stuck in a major dilemma to choose between his legacy and a huge amount of money!

Michael Block gets stuck in money vs legacy puddle

Block has been in the headlines ever since he made his mark at the 2023 PGA Championship. The golf star made millions of fans for his golfing abilities. And not just that, his emotional response to finding out how he had left behind Masters champion and world no. 2 Jon Rahm, touched the hearts of many.

However, besides all the fame that he has received, Block is currently in a situation he has never been in before. And it is quite similar to what Tiger Woods and other famous golf legends have been through several times in their career.

“I’ve had a couple different offers actually. It’s crazy, right?” he said. “I’ve had a couple different offers, and the initial response was it was $50,000 and I’d hand deliver it. Kind of kiddingly, but I guess not really anymore.” Well, it looks like the golf star is not ready to close the doors to any money-making opportunities just like that!

Will Block choose money over legacy?

According to his recent interviews, Block seems to be extremely grateful for all the support he has received from his fans. However, his recent statements have brought him under the spotlight with quite a different perception of his legacy. However, he ended up deciding what he really wanted to do with his in-demand club.

“I’ve had other people ask about it to maybe have it preserved in certain spots for the PGA, et cetera, stuff like that. So it’s up in the air.,” he said. “For right now it just needs to hit shots in there close for me, and I’ll go from there.”. Notably, the player has no intentions of letting go of his much-valuable 7-iron.
